Interesting.
I'd love to see more on this. A PCB located in the interior I would not think would see drastic temperature swings like the engine bay; I would expect CTE on the laminate types to be relatively similar across the available laminates. But I guess not... once the laminate had been qualified, any change would have to be qualified also.
Alternatively, if the board sees flex from weight on it, maybe it's more flexible than the proper material--but it seems like a bad idea to apply stresses to mono caps. Flexing boards seems like such a bad idea. Or maybe they have the cap close to a board edge and stresses from breaking boards apart after pick and place does it in.
That reminds, maybe some day I should look into fixing our Honda's airbag problem (been ignoring as it's the passenger airbag and it's usually single occupant).
